Samuel-247



Sam was born to a farming family and community, but was orphaned at a young age because his parents were killed in a truck accident. He survived and was taken by Col. Cosgrove to become a S-III. Childhood: Samuel was born Warsaw, Poland as the son of a civilian that survived the massacre of New Alexandria. He was a healthy child, with a defected right arm. His parents were very poor due to fleeing New Alexandria without his possessions. His parents were farmers that traveled to the city when supplies were needed or were going to sell produce. He didn’t make many friends because of his reserved, held back nature. Many of the other farmers saw Sam as a person who enjoys solitude. On one particular market run, Sam noticed as a truck was careening out of control, and started running over to his parents to warn them. The truck crashed into his parents’ vehicle and started careening towards him, to which he reacted with extreme speed, jumping out of the way. He rushed to his parents’ vehicle and found them both dead. Soon after his parents died Sam was taken into an orphanage. During Colonel Cosgrove’s search for Spartan candidates, he came across this security tape showing Sam’s astonishing reflexes. Cosgrove soon took Sam into his Spartan III program and began training him. Before Augmentations: Colonel Cosgrove did not regret his decision of taking up Sam into the program. His testing results astonished his superiors and he soon gained a reputation among trainers. With the other trainees’, Sam acted just as he did on his old farm, keeping to himself and staying reserved. Many of the other Spartan candidates did not like him and stayed away from him. At age ten, Cosgrove realized that he needed to have his defected arm replaced with a prosthetic arm so that his performance was not hindered in any way. Sam then continued his training as normal, making himself ready for augmentations at age 15. After Augmentations: Around age 16, Sam was assigned to Sigma Company charged with the task of gathering Intel agent. He gathered Intel mostly on the Insurrection, and then was reassigned to Delta Company, as his superiors thought that his skill would be better suited there. He worked with many companies and divisions from other UNSC branches, soon becoming a highly recommended agent. Some of his deployments have been in Angolis, and the famous battle of Arcadia. He provided sniper support for the 101st ODST. In the aftermath of the battle, Sam was promoted to Sergeant. Equipment: In the field, Samuel typically wields his custom 66N-425 Tactical Sniper Rifle an M6G Magnum sidearm. On missions is confined areas, he forgoes the sniper rifle and takes an M95a Shotgun instead. Samuel is a cool-headed person, but loves to joke around and can keep his temper.
